Map of the UK

Hampton in Arden is a large, picturesque village in the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull in England, historically part of Warwickshire and taking its name from the old Forest of Arden. It retains a handsome medieval village green with ponds, a traditional parish church and a number of listed buildings, plus a well‑preserved packhorse bridge over the River Blythe, all of which contribute to a strong conservation‑area character.

Despite its rural feel the village sits close to major transport links, lying within easy reach of Birmingham and Coventry and near Birmingham Airport and the M42, so many residents commute to nearby cities. Local life centres on independent shops, pubs and village events, giving it the mix of a commuter economy alongside a lively community with deep historic roots.
